    The orange and blue box are great places to start, just to get different sizes of wood but I would encourage all new carvers to quickly investigate local lumber yards or mills. All of my suppliers are 1-2 hours away but so worth the trip. Once you try cedar, basswood, etc, you’ll never go back to just regular pine. Its such a better and more enjoyable carve.

    Great info, I’m only been caving for just over a month. I’ve have used common pine scraps for practice and picked up 2 treated fence pickets to see how they would carve. Think I will follow your lead. Thanks for all the tips!

    Really appreciate the video! I am new to this, and trying to figure out which wood 4x8 sheets would be best to buy to cut wood rounds out of for circular signs from a large store like home Depot or Lowe's. I am planning to use 4 by 8 sheets and want to know which would be the best wood for cutting with a router, wood rounds with about an 18in diameter. These will be outside, stained and varnished. Hoping you can help me. Thank you in advance

    • @oldave100
      @oldave100  Рік тому

      Well, it just kind of depends.
      1, if you're going to carve a sign and do any sanding at all, you have to make sure the top veneer of the wood is thick enough. About 1/8"
      2, you want to have as little gaps in each ply as possible
      3, you want to pick a piece with the nicest looking top veneer
      I;d go with something at least 3/4" thick, unless you're putting a backer on it.
      Hope this helps

    What about butcherblock wood or even cuttingboards?
    Thanks

    • @oldave100
      @oldave100  Рік тому +1

      Thanks, Benjamin! Butcher bloc and cutting boards look great carved. However, they can be really difficult because there's multiple types of wood with different grains and densities. So keeping a straight line is a challenge.

    I'm about to start my own channel under a business name, I will subscribe with that account too. Your camera quality seems to have improved over the last month or so. I had to get a few 10' 1x6 and 1x8 while at HD last week. I had to go through the entire selection just for two boards from each. That stuff is awful I agree. Good video guys! Lets Gooo 50k!

      What's good stuff for carving, the hardwood section? You basically said avoid all the main stuff they sell lol.
      I went to a local lumber yard for the first time recently, it was about 35% cheaper than HD prices so im trying to spread the good word 😂 That was hardwood prices anyway, didnt look at construction lumber

    • @oldave100

      Home Depot doesn't have a large hardwood selection, but we really like Walnut, Maple, Mohagony, and a bunch of others. Here's a video we did of the woods we really like at Home Depot ua-cam.com/video/O1KBUrRmm1U/v-deo.html

    How dare you compare high points to a warped, knotty piece of wood....a 2x4 is a much more reliable form of self defense then a high point.
